~^HE following Genealogical Narrative of the
-*- Family in the United States, is a work to
Hart
whi( h
was dedicated the closing years in the life ol our mother,
the late Mrs. Sarah S. Young, With patient labor and
inquiry, through seven years, she traced the e-xtensive
family from its original progenitor in America, Thomas
Hart, of London, England, A. 1). 1690, down to the
present generation. It was a labor ol love, which closed
only with her life, in June, i 8S 1 . Two days before the
commencement ol her last illness, she completed the
record, and was preparing to write the dedication to the
vast kindred, when the fatal sickness intervened The
manuscript, which probably could not be replaced b)
any living person, was carefully preserved, and is now
presented to the descendants ol Thos. I [art, of 1 lanover,
by the children of the compiler, as a complete chart ol a
family which has not been unknown in the history ol
our country.

NATHANIEL HART'S DESCENDANTS.
NATHANIEL HART, fifth son of Thomas Hart, of Hanover,
c Virginia, and Susannah Rice, wa.- born in 17ol, and al an earh age
removed with his mother to North Carolina. In ITli*' he man id
Sarah Simpson, daughter of Col. Richard Smip >n and M -- Kinch-
elo, living near Alexandria, \rirginia, and resided al hi- county seat,
the lii'A House,. in Caswell county, North Carolina, until hi- removal
to Kent ueky in 1 77!).
In 1760 Capt. Hart commanded a company for the Mippression «.!'
an insurrection which threatened the overthrow of the government,
and for his bravery, while in the discharge of the arduous and haz-
ard nous undertaking, was handsomely complimented h\ the oilicers
of the government.
, In 17'So he was instrumental in forming a company, consisting of
/himself, two brothers -Thomas Hart and David Hart —with three
[other gentlemen, for the purcha.-e of Transylvania from the Indian-,
\ which purchase was secured to them by an act of tin General Assem-
bly of V irginia in 1 778.
> Capt. Hart continued to reside near lloonesboro, Kentucky, where
his family had been protected from the Indian-, until 17<VJ, when he
was killed by them, riding out near the fort.
Capt. Hart was not scalped, as erroneously stated in tin History of
Kentucky, his children having affirmed the contrary, nor did his mur-
derers escape. They were overt tken by their pursuers, and the shoe and
knee buckles they had taken from the body of Capt. Hart recovered.
These relics are now in the possession of his great grandson, Richard
Hart Shaw, residing near Horn Lake?, DeSoto county, Mississippi.

We regret being unable to give fuller details of this family of the

Mary Benton, eldest daughter of Anno Good) and Jesse Benton,
died at the age of forty, unmarried.
Margaret Benton, Nancy Benton and Susan Benton, daughters ol
Ann Gooch and Jessee Benton, died of rapid consumption, as they
were growing into womanhood. Their graves are known as the
" Graves of the Three Sisters," near Uillsboro, and were long a land-
mark in that part of Tennessee.
Of the family of James Gooch, the brother of Mrs Benton, we
have failed to obtain any information.
In closing the history of this interesting and prominent branch of
the Hart family, we regret that our efforts to obtain full statistics have
only been partially successful, and will add, in the language of one ol
its honored members : " All the male descendants of my grandfather
have been men who have made honorable and useful men; the wo-
men, good wives and mothers."
